    Easiest to service?

    Hello, a thought just came to me: What turntable are easiest to service? The Beogram 4000 or Beogram 8000(8002)?

    If missing parts or mechanicla parts need to be replaced - Beogram 800x is the one, simply because it is easy to find donor products.

    I also think the circuit of the Beogram 800x / technology will be preferrible for service.

    Very true but the 8000 does suffer from some poor materials - the plastic spring housing is liable to explode in a cloud of plastic fragments. The 4000 is much better made. A late 4002 would probably be the easiest to service - far less wacky electronics and a simple DC motor. Also a lot easier to take apart.

    Thank you for your answers. As I said before, it was just a small thought. Both series of turntables are fantastic in each way Smile

    I own a 4000, 4002, 4004, 8000 and two 8002's myself Big Smile
